“Juliana was beyond great. She took care of my dog as if it were one of her own. My flight got canceled, and she happily took care of the dog for two more days. I don't know what I would have done without her help. I highly recommend her to others.”

“This was our first time using Rover for house sitting and it was worth it! Taryn is so sweet, she kept us updated on our pets and sent us plenty of pictures. We had a meet and greet prior to booking but of course my pets loved her! I knew my babies were in the best hands and look forward to booking with Taryn again! ?”

“Rob did a great job watching our house, two dogs and three cats for 24 days! We were very nervous leaving all our animals with someone but Rob was great and would almost instantly reply to our messages and give us daily updates. We would definitely recommend him and would use again. Thank you!”

“Samantha was amazing! She took such great care of all our pets. Our dog was so relaxed when we got home. This was also a last minute booking since our sitter bailed on us and she really saved the day. She sent lots of updates and pics too so we could see all our babies being well care for. We’ll absolutely use her service in the future.”

“Nicole is so sweet and communicative! She was quick to respond from the first message I sent her inquiring about her availability. She took good care of our pups and would be happy to have her watch our girls again!”
“Alexa did a wonderful job taking care of our dog in our home over a long holiday weekend. She was communicative, made sure Beau got his walks and play time, left our home clean and our dog happy. She followed our instructions on everything and asked questions when she wasn’t sure about something. We hope our dog wasn’t too crazy for her, but we would gladly welcome her back! So grateful we found Alexa.”

“David did a wonderful job taking care of our cat and dog. He sent pictures daily, and was attentive to our cat who his shy around new people. Would definietly recommend, and we have already rebooked !”

I am a special education teacher, who works during the day, but I am available on evenings, weekends, holidays, and during school breaks. I am excited for a change of pace and look forward to working with your fur babies! I have a house with a fully enclosed yard and a finished basement. I am available for house-sitting or drop-in visits, depending on your needs.
About: Ive taken care of friends and family dogs for over 20 years. I spent 16 years as a Vet tech in veterinary medicine. Ive had many dogs over my lifetime and trained them as well.

“Maria spent 2 nights with our pup at our home. She sent numerous pictures of their walks and hangouts by the pool. Maria was in constant contact with us regarding any questions/concerns about the house or Cash. My husband and I were happy when we returned to see that our pup looked happy and well-maintained and same with our home! We feel relieved knowing that our dog/home is in good hands with Maria.”

About: Hello, I'm Katie! I helped my mom run a cat rescue for over 8 years (that includes waking up every 2 hours to bottle feed, giving medication, handling moody kitties, cleaning up constant messes, etc). Since then, I've been trusted to pet sit for friends, coworkers, and family members. I have more experience house sitting with cats than dogs, but I love all pets equally and would be so happy to meet them! I offer overnight stays/house sitting, drop-ins, and dog walking. I am currently pet sitting full time. I am available on weekdays and weekends however early or late as needed, and for as many drop-ins as needed. My schedule is very flexible! The care and safety of your pet is the most important thing to me. I make sure to keep human food out of reach along with plastic bags, cords, or other potentially harmful items. I always try to keep pets entertained, happy, and out of trouble. I am a very clean person and will never leave a mess behind, I can assure your home will be well looked after. I can provide photo or text updates as often as needed!
“Guadalupe took care of my cats at home. She did such a good job that one of my cat gained weight when I came back! My senior cats have special needs such as medications, insulin injections. She took care of them all. Thank you so much!”

About: Hello! I work remotely, therefore I am always home. Your dog will not be left unattended. I also have a flexible cancellation policy. I know life can be crazy! I am the ultimate dog lover and will treat your dog like family. I keep my dog healthy with lots of snuggles and daily walks. Your dog will receive that same care that my Fur baby receives. I can also accommodate more than one pet; the more the merrier. You can call any time to check on your baby. I am always available to talk. I have a big fenced yard and a cozy home. Your dog will always be welcomed on my lap and couch. ❤️ Since I work from home full time I have lots of time to hang out with the dogs in my yard. They are like my little coworkers! I usually take the dogs on 2 walks a day but if you have a preference on more or less, I can do that. How do I ensure your dog is safe during their visit? I have a small friendly chihuahua. He loves making new friends and sharing his toys. My yard is treated monthly for fleas and ticks (All pet friendly treatments). The yard is secure with a tall fence and no gaps. My dog is up to date with his vaccines. Please let me know if your furbaby has a set schedule if not they will follow our routine. They get plenty of supervised play time and potty breaks throughout the day. I regularly vacuum and mop my house. All furniture also gets vacuumed daily. I use pet friendly flea prevention methods inside and outside my house. We get our house and yard professionally treated to avoid ticks and fleas. But I ask that you also keep your pet on flea preventatives. All dogs that come in must be vaccinated. Please do not bring your pup if they are showing any symptoms. (Runny stools, coughing, runny nose)
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is that I’ve been surrounded by animals since I was a child. I’ve cared for and loved my dog Maya for 5 years and my cat Sombra for 7 years. I also have turtles, and in the past I’ve had parrots and chickens. For me, this is not just a job — it’s a passion that has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Pet care is naturally part of my daily routine because I’ve always lived with animals. I make sure they have fresh food and water every day, give them time for walks or play, and check on their well-being. On a weekly basis, I dedicate time to cleaning their spaces, grooming if needed, and making sure they feel loved and safe. Unfortunately, my pets are currently in Honduras, but in the future we’ll be reunited. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions carefully to maintain their routine and make them feel comfortable. I provide fresh food and water, daily exercise or playtime, regular check-ins, and lots of affection. I also keep their space clean and safe, and give them extra attention to reduce stress while their owners are away. My goal is to make pets feel as loved and cared for as they do when their family is home.

Whiting pet parents share their Rover experiences
Our experience with Ximena was great! She was flexible with the start time and even came by beforehand to meet our pets, which gave us extra peace of mind. She stayed at our home for several days while we were out of the country and was fantastic throughout. During the stay, she communicated quickly and regularly, sending us photos so we always felt comfortable knowing our pets were in good hands. When we returned, the house was clean, our pets were very happy, and she kept them on the exact feeding schedule we had trained them on. We will definitely be booking her again—highly recommend, and you shouldn’t hesitate to book with her either. Thanks again, Ximena!

Ximena was great! When we met she was taking notes the whole time and was eager to jump in and help Maggie. The day of the sitting Xiema was very timely and so happy to be there watching Maggie. She adhered to all of the directions we gave her and was an all-star sitter. We’ve already scheduled her to watch Maggie again!!
